    He was speaking straight facts on the depreciation of the 7 series. Imagine financing a vehicle that costs 100,000 dollars and then 2 years later try to trade it in only to be told your vehicle is only worth 40,000 and you have the pay off all the negative equity in order to get into another vehicle damn that’s crazy

    I had a 2015 Chevy Cruze LTZ that I bought brand new when it came out. Put 158k miles on it and the only problem I ever had was at 110k miles the valve cover gasket needed to be changed as it was starting to leak oil. Was a simple easy job to do. And I had to upgrade the brake rotors as they warped on the first trip to the mountains in the car. Outside of that it was reliable provided you take care of the car. Keep up with maintenance. The downside though is well I hated the car lol. Was the most uncomfortable cheaply made car I've ever driven. Everything will rattle. If you are on a 8+ hour road trip your lower back and hips will hate you. I have a 2014 Mercedes E350 coupe now that has been rock solid and much more comfortable on trips, still gets 30mpg, although premium fuel costs, and has been reliable. It's now at 128k miles and still trucking. That is probably one thing I would advise on anyone buying Mercedes. Buy one that uses a NA engine. Turbos / supercharges just adds more wear and tear. Unless you have deeper pockets to cover those kind of expenses.

At 47k the infamous hemi tick, mis fiers on cylinder 6 due to coil pack, and spark plug. Both my window actuators went out 3 times, my defrost went out wich requires running wires from front to trunk. All under warrenty. My water pump went out again at 48k....

Figuring I’ll trade in my VW GTI 6 speed manual.

I need daily driver too that’s gonna run in the snow and 250-300K or at least 10 years.

      Thanks very much and great choice on cars. We have always owned Golfs as well over the years and love the way they drive, practical as well. The Charger's are the ones I actually looked at a couple of years ago too as I prefer that body over the Challenger and the V8 is a great punchy unit. The Demon is mesmerizing, but a big price to pay for power that will only be used fro time to time. With that said, I also was a little less than dazzled over the interior material quality as well as fit and finish, and I would say the VW has a more stapled together feel than the Dodge for sure. The Dodge is the way, if you want big V8 sound and punch but there is a tradeoff indeed and as long as a person is good with that, either will work. Hope you also have a very Merry Christmas. See you on the other side of 2023. Cheers.

    The Mitsubishi Mirage really shouldn't be on that list. "Doors that fall off" anecdotes isn't exactly what I would call a technical analysis of the car. I had a 2019 and I can tell you when I hit that deer at 70mph on the Garden State Parkway last year in November the driver airbag deployed as well as the knee airbag. The car fell apart but it's supposed to do that to absorb the energy and I walked away. Is it loaded with cheap plastics from the Mattel toy aisle? Yes. Is it the slowest gasoline powered production car in the market today? Probably. But I have to tell you I had my Mirage for two years, crashed it with 33k miles and the car never had rattles or squeaks. They make these in Thailand and sell the 💩 out of them there and in the Philippines. Fuel economy isn't spectacular for a 3 cylinder, you get 30-40mph depending on the conditions. But I would recommend this car to anyone who doesn't have a lot of money and is looking to get it new with that 10/100k powertrain warranty. You just need to +1 or +2 the tires and that's really it.

      @@subaruamazon I don't think that it's a question of reliability as much as it is build quality and materials quality. Mitsubishi for sure cuts corners and assembles things in a low quality way, however I think they focused more on powertrain reliability and a lot less on fit and finish. That's the path they've decided to go, love it or hate it. If you sit inside and modern Mitsubishi and you start to push in on interior panels as well as exterior panels you'll notice the panels have a lot of give and they squeak, creak or rub against another panel when pushed in, however when you're going down the road the vehicle is otherwise quiet, it's like a David Copperfield trick or something. I just leased a 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV for 2 years and even the Outlander, Mitsubishi's flagship vehicle here in the states, has the same panel issue. Even the seats only have the synthetic leather covering only the parts of the seat that you see and feel, the outboard portion of the front seats are wrapped in synthetic leather but not the inboard portion 😆.

      typical gm. I rented these cars and they were great and fun to drive. but the parts are cheap and they fall apart over time. I can remember the CEO saying they are not selling well after being out for a while. Why doesnt the ceo of toyota or honda say the camrys and accords are not selling well? Since the big three got rocked in the eighties and got their clocks cleaned by the japanese, they never learned that people want reliable cars that dont live in the shop. I am amazed with such crappy quality the big three are still around. and the quality seems to be waning.

Fuel pump issues , Steering wheel problems and so on. So far spent about 1400$ to fix all of those , but unfortunately something new comes up almost every day. Haven’t given up the idea of spending and fixing it so far, but yeah, I think expect that with dodges / Chryslers

    I call BS on the Charger,or Chrysler LX platform. Transmissions being junk yet it's a ZF 8 speed which is probably the best automatic on the market. Thermostats failing? All cars will eventually need a thermostat. Along with an alternator. If you want to talk about stuff that's actually junk,this list should have any GM vehicle with a stretched timing chain 3.6, anything Korean with a direct injection 4 cylinder,GM trucks with the atrocious 6L80E and displacement on demand motors,Ford Eco boom 4 cylinders. To list a Charger on here is just plain stupid.

I recently traded a 2020 Frontier SV 4x4 with 34k miles for the Mazda which had 22k miles. I know the vehicles are worlds apart, that was the idea. The Mazda wins big time in the comfort and appearance dept. Ive had several Frontiers and a 2016 Altima 3.5 SR which was a fun car but suddenly developed a strange loss of coolant issue. It wasnt leaking, nor was it mixing anywhere. And of course Nissan couldnt find the issue. That car was traded for Frontier #2. Anyway, what are your thoughts on Mazda vs Nissan reliability?

    Charger is a solid reliable car....The Chrysler 300 is Consumer Reports most reliable car and its the exact same as the Charger,just different body style...Those seats are very comfortable!! Better than most cars with hard seats you die after 10 minutes of driving!
    Lots of the issues you mention were from the 05-10 the 11-23 are well built solid cars...I put 185,000 miles on mine with zero issues...We owned several others,including a 2018 Hellcat Challenger (still own)but the 185,000 mile car was a 5.7 Hemi zero issues...I have a few family members with the 3.6 and one has 110,000 miles with no issues..
    I was a certified Toyota Tech from 1993-2013 when I retired before I turned 40..These 2011-up Charger/Challenger/300 have fewer issues than a lot of Toyota products! Yes I owned Toyota products as I worked for them but being 6'4 the Chrysler L series cars are the most comfortable and even reliable cars I could buy...The seats are even more comfortable than any truck by any manufacturer around! Resale value is high on used L series cars but like anything a bad economy will sink any car..I bought many new Chrysler vehicles as the owner of my dealer I worked for he had a Toyota,Lexus and Chrysler dealer,so he didnt get pissed I didnt only buy a Toyota lol

    Speaking of burn my wallet, the 7 Series looks amazing, but they come with that awesome exploding V8 90%of the time, which makes you have to fight your lizard brain, which wants the styling.
    I wonder what that electric version of the 7 series would be like to look after, though.
